Using BiteFX Effectively

Dentists who have incorporated BiteFX successfully into their practices tell us it has had a significant and immediate effect on their revenues. Assuming you understand the concepts of occlusion and know how to use them to provide excellent treatment to your patients, then the following pointers will help you get the most out of BiteFX.

Currently use the TMJ Tutor, a model of a skull and/or sketches to communicate occlusion to your patients?

- Simply substitute BiteFX wherever you would use these tools and you'll see an immediate difference in how well people understand what you are communicating.

Expect people to accept your occlusal-based treatment recommendations because they should trust you?

- Unless you have established a superlative reputation in the community, you may be frustrated with lower acceptance rates than you would like for this much-needed treatment. Start taking a few minutes to show the patients their occlusal problems using BiteFX and how you can fix them. They'll quickly insist that you give them the right treatment.

Don't have much time for explaining stuff to patients because your assistant is always tugging at you to see the next patient?

- If this is the dynamic in your practice, the chances are that you are not doing many high-value cases and probably don't have time to incorporate occlusal understanding into every patient's treatment. We encourage you to start selecting patients who you know could benefit from good occlusal-based treatment and scheduling treatment planning appointments at a convenient time of your day. Use BiteFX to help you explain what you propose to do and see how your higher value, higher profitability cases grow.
